    Who gambles with REAL money here?
    I'm sure a good percentage of people are only here for the SBR points and promotions.
    I'm sure a good percentage of people are only here for the SBR contests
    I'm sure a good percentage of people are only here to shoot the shit.

    But who are the posters that bet real money on a daily basis, and primarily come here to find a slight, (if any at all) advantage over the book? And has SBR helped you achieve that in any way?

            How many are Pros? How many posters are there total? You have to assume well over 50% of the total posters are ghosts anyway.

              So what do you come to SBR for?

              A) I'm sure a good percentage of people are only here for the SBR points and promotions.
              B) I'm sure a good percentage of people are only here for the SBR contests
              C) I'm sure a good percentage of people are only here to shoot the shit.

              D) But who are the posters that bet real money on a daily basis, and primarily come here to find a slight, (if any at all) advantage over the book? And has SBR helped you achieve that in any way?

                Are you really that ignorant? I didn't think so, but I guess I was wrong. Just cause someone doesn't want to be come an 'SBR Pro' doesnt mean they're not gambling with real money pal, get your shit straight. I for one don't care to link my SBR ID with my 5dimes ID, those two just don't belong in the same sentence IMO.

                  Good point. I dont have any money tied up in these online sportsbooks now.

                    there has still been no proof from all you people complaining of linking or tying real books to sbr that anyone at sbr has access to any part of your book account.

                    but by all means please prove me wrong.

                        I come here to shoot the shit....But I do bet real money daily.

                        I hardly venture outside of Players Talk...I normally don't care to see what people post up in the NBA/NFL/MLB forums because half the time it's people like Tha Diesel just posting up a team and putting "pound it" "lock" "I'll leave if it loses" If there was people that actually gave insight on the game I'd probably check it out more. But it seems that only 1 out of 10 threads have actual insight on the game, So I don't bother.

                          What are you afraid of? You're here only for the points, just admit it! You don't even wager with real money!

                          5 Dimes to you means 50 cents!

                          If you have $200 at 5 Dimes (which I highly doubt) then fill out the form and sign up! Why wouldn't you?

                            Are you really that ignorant? What do you think SBR is doing with our Account numbers? Do you think they are logging into our accounts at 5 dimes/bodog and looking at our plays every day?

                            Do you really think reputable books allow SBR to see everything that is going on in our accounts, just because they have our account numbers? Get your shit straight

                              didn't say that everyone who isnt pro doesnt gamble with real money ,
                              but there are thousands of active posters and only 300 pros right now and i don't think that most of the people just dont want to link the sportsbook accounts with sbr ,
                              just look at the points forum , people stiff other posters for points which are worth less than 10 dollars , some on here threatened to kill ohters over a few points and now you get a got offer to double your daily points and 90 % of the posters don't take advantage of that ??

                              pretty obvious that most on here just dont have the money to gamble and are here for entertainment , contest , etc
                              which is perfectly fine imo
                              you might be an exception though

                                i skip around in players talk, for a few laughs, and i like to see what picks everyone else likes so i can fade, and i study the people who actually know what they are talking about and take their opinions into consideration when choosing my own plays and unit size

                                    I don't know guys - I guess I just don't wanna be a part of the 'norm'. It's kinda like the whole Facebook hype when it first came out, everyone and their mother jumped on the bandwagon...but I refused to be a part of that crowd.

                                        Good post. That can be a turn-off for the sports forums.

                                          Well I would assume about 80% of the people here do not actually wager with real money, but instead come here for the POINTS, CONTESTS, PROMOTIONS, and/or ENTERTAINMENT.

                                            like i've said before:

                                            sbr pro=more points=more free cash to real books=more money in my pockets.

                                            but again, to each his own. maybe the non pros are rolling in the dough and don't need free cash to their books.

                                              The POINTS system was the smartest thing any of these forums ever came up with!

                                              Whose idea was it anyway?

                                              Brilliant!

                                                there is small percentage of people here that actually bet on other books different from the US ones, like euro-asian books and european exchanges not included in the SBR pro list

                                                    If you're not betting real money I don't really see how it's even gambling.

                                                      Its not.

                                                      But people are here for the points and contests. They can win real money accounts thru the points program and contests. But if they dont...no big deal.

                                                          Would it be fair to say that the majority of the posters that actually gamble with real money here can be found in the sports forums, and NOT chilling in the 'players talk' area?

                                                            Not really, I come into PT all the time when there isn't anything attractive to bet on, or even when I'm waitin on a game to finish..helps kill time and keep the nerves calm, and of course I enjoy going back and forth on subjects with you fukks.
